Misaligned and Crooked Teeth - Your Dentistree Mornington

Crooked, crowded or spaced out teeth may be the reason why some choose to hide their smiles. Misaligned and malpositioned teeth can vary in severity and are sometimes more noticeable in certain cases. Your Dentistree Mornington can help to revitalise your self esteem, oral health and quality of life.

Causes

• Family history or genetics
• Habits such as thumb sucking or tongue thrusting
• Poor oral health or tooth decay
• Early loss of baby teeth
• Accidents, falls and sports injuries

Risks of Crooked Teeth

Not only are crooked teeth an aesthetic problem for some, people are generally unaware of some functional issues that go untreated:

• Increased tooth decay and gum disease – it is more difficult to keep teeth clean from routine tooth brushing and flossing
• Difficulty chewing and digestive issues – the way that the teeth are touching together may disable you from effective chewing 
• Excess wear on the teeth, jaw muscles and joints – you may suffer from jaw strain, headaches, temporomandibular joint disorder (TMD) or cracked teeth
